2007 Ford Taurus Brake Master Cylinder Parts Q&A

• Q: How to service and repair the brake master cylinder on 2007 Ford Taurus?

  A: The procedure for breaking master cylinder servicing and repair starts with disconnecting the battery ground cable. A suction device should be used along with the secured air cleaner outlet pipe to drain the brake fluid reservoir. After disconnecting the brake fluid level sensor electrical connector you should loosen the brake tube fittings then disconnect them from the brake master cylinder before restating those fittings with a torque of 18 Nm (13 ft. lbs.). The two brake master cylinder nuts need to be removed during installation with a torque of 33 Nm (24 ft. lbs.). A new master cylinder that needs installation demands bench bleeding prior to performing the reversal of removal steps. The complete procedure ends by performing a brake system bleeding operation. The only proper brake fluid for use is DOT 3 fluid because any other fluid can cause permanent damage to braking parts. Braking specialists must exercise caution when working near eyes and against painted or plastic surfaces by cleaning up any fluid leaks quickly with water.
